A lil test run.......
1 Attachment(s)
We did some testing yesterday at the lake. Everything went great and the boat handled pretty good. We still had the mufflers on and well over 120 gal of fuel on board. May have to try some different props sometimes since we are hitting the rev limiters very quickly. Anyways still a great run for a full pleasure boat.

WOW! 126MPH at only 800RPM??!!! LOL!
Just kidding, thats really cookin', congrats! Michael |
great # Ben!! mercury#1 for a reason.

Thanks everybody, brought the boat back home today, safe and sound sitting in the shop. Got it all winterized and all fluids changed for next season or maybe florida for the winter, just kidding, but what a great idea. Going to do some more updating this winter. More projects to come, nothing like before though...I hope

What a great set up. You have to be pumped to be runnnig 126 in one of the biggest luxury V bottoms in its class. What is even more amazing to me is that it takes alot more hp to run 126 in my 37 that is alot smaller. Technology is amazing! Congrats!
|
That is fast wow. I see a SV in my future
|
Congrats on the run!! That is an impressive number!!
|
WOW ben!!! that very fast for a v. congrats buddy:coolcowboy:

Love the look of that boat. You mentioned that you did a lot of projects, what did you have to do to it when you bought it?
